The first installmen in the AVP franchische hit the the theaters in 2003 and 3 and was produced and directed by Paul W Anderson "Resident Evil".

Although i think there could have been more story telling and some more lore in the franchise, this movie holds its own. The movie has some nice character moments. Nice visuall effects. It also adds some combined history for both the Aliens and the Predators, And also has some interaction between Human and Predator Hunters, And last but not least, It also features Lance Henriksen, Fan favorite of the ("Alien Franchische"), this time as Charles Weyland of weyland industries.

The Artic setting and the mayan temple where nicely constructed, as a fan of the AVP games franchise i really enjoyed watching this movie. The downside however i found the action pretty predictable at times.

Also besides Weyland and Alexa Woods, the film was filled with minor characters who didn't have the viewer rooting for them.

The first installment isn't that great but its not that bad either, And despite the negativity that surrounds these franchises don't forget the still did turn up a decent profit for the respective studios, Whilst im glad the respective franchises did go their own seperate ways again. Im Curious to see whats in store for the future of these movies.

For those that haven't watched it. i would definetly recomend watching the first AVP.
